Funny, I showed up the first day and the dialer dialed my first call. I stayed on and talked with the guy a bit. The guys was not the one in collections, it was his roommate. The manager was upset that I was wasting time talking about KU Basketball but his manager loved the call (they listened in). So they moved me to another department. It was the department where you dialed people that had been deliquint for years on years, and had 0 intention of paying. You basically sat around, smoked cigarettes and tried to befriend people that would lead you to these people, then of course you had to get them to pay.

I never got one person to pay.
